Body Systems (stuff having trouble remembering) Flashcards
hemolymph
what organisms with open circulatory system pump into sinuses
QRS
depolarization of ventricles
Cardiomyocytes
heart cells with automaticity, can initiate an action potential without nerve
SA Node
in RA, initiates cardiac cycle+has the greatest automaticity+ most likely to stimulate a heartbeat
AV Node
Gives a brief delay between contraction of atria+ventricles, sends signal to bundle of His
Vagus Nerve
Slows down automaticity of SA node
Lub
Ventricles contract
Dub
Atria contract
Heart intercalated discs
connect heart cells, made of desmosomes+gap junctions and function to transmit signal in coordinated fashion
P Wave. “PQRS”
Q wave
R wave
S wave
P- atrial depolarization (contraction)
Q- depolarization through inter ventricular septum
R- Ventricular poarization
s- completion of ventricular polarization
Cardiac Output
HR x SV in 1 min
Mean arterial pressure
average atrial pressure during once complete cycle.
CO x TPR
Capillaries function (cardiac)
collect waste+ CO2 and connect to a vein which bring blood back to heart
skeletal muscles
squeeze to move blood through veins
platelets (thrombocytes)
no nucleus, large bone marrow are the precursor for platelets. Release factors that can help convert fibrinogen into fibrin which creates a net to stop bleeding
Fetal circulation
Fetus gets O2 and nutrients through placenta. Blood in baby’s heart does not need to go through the pulmonary system, not exposed to air. Waste+ CO2 removed from right ventricle to umbilical cord
Erythroblastosis Fetallis
Mother has Rh- blood, she can develop anti Rh+ antibodies which can attach baby
Lymphatic system
hydrostatic pressure pushes fluid out of capillaries at arterial end, oncotic pressure bring fluid back in at venue end
Lymphatic capillaries
collect remaining lymph, capillaries form layer vessels which travel to heart. Lymph is filtered through lymph nodes(center for adaptive immune response). Move through skeletal muscle
Left lung+right lung
L–> 2 lobes
R–> 3 lobes
Pleura
covers lungs w/ two layer (parietal (outer) and visceral (inner)
Pleural space
fluid filled space between layers, lower pressure than atm
Tidal volume
volume of air that moves through lined with inhalation/exhalation
Residual volume
minimum amount of air that must be present to prevent lung collapse
Functional residual capacity
entire volume of air still present in lungs after a normal exhalation, sum of expiratory reserve+residual
